They were originally using the full circle mounts which were great. You can see in KiDyNomiTe's review (4th and 6th pictures) that the mount has the full circle. Then somewhere along the line, they decided to change to the 2/3 circle (reducing the materials = cheaper and/or lighter?).

Then it turns out that the 2/3 circle mounts have seized ball joints. I'm guessing they don't have S13s/S14s at their disposal for testing so they are sending out some full circle and some 2/3 circle mounts as replacements. They're probably going to hear that the full circles fixed the problem and the 2/3 circles still have the problem.

Well, that's my theory anyway.

That is most likely what happened.

The ones I had originally were 2/3. one is way to tight and the other doesn't move at all. Now I installed my replacement mounts (2/3) and they are worst, neither of them move at all this time. I'll call them after the weekend and get them to send me some full circle mounts. Fucking idiots use me as a test subjet for their crap. I have better things to do then take my coils apart every week.
